MP3 format on a single disc.
Audio files may be downloaded from the Internet onto your computers hard drive
or rippedfrom normal CDs. They are then compressed into MP3 format files by
software on your computer and recorded or burnedonto blank discs.
Typically when making your own MP3 CDs you will organize the song titles into
Directories, also called Albums, by artist, or by type of music. The software in
this CD player can recognize up to 99 Directoriescontaining up to a total of 300
filesor tracks.
NOTE: Because MP3 CDs contain so much more information than normal CDs
this CD player will take longer to Readall of the information on an MP3 disc after
you press the PLAY/PAUSE button. You may see the READINGindicator for a
minute or more before playback begins. This is normal and not an indication of any
problem with your player.
Most of the normal CD operations described in this manual also apply to MP3
CDs. However there are a few differences in MP3 CD playback functions, and
